goodbye japan

21st of Dec, 2003ce* in: diary

Well, its time to leave Japan once again. This will be the 5th time I’ve left this wonderfully strange place, which never ceases to facinate me.
I’ve accomplished prettymuch everything I set out to do, except for purchasing a few gadgets and books that I needed. I got my love back, who is coming back to England in the new year.

I wish I could have stayed in Japan forever.

And I suppose my unwillingness to go was felt in my flight… some of the most scary moments in my life. Ever flown at the back of a 747? Its shit. Add to that the most turbulent weather possible. And a plane full of screaming passengers.

The only thing that made it all worthwhile was the short flight from Amsterdam to London in the evening. We had to circle above london whilst waiting for landing permission… breathtakingly beautiful.
